This tutorial
allows you to learn how to perform a sort of package followed by a pick and
place in an automated systems simulation environment (Factory IO).
Communication between the computers and the PLC is managed by PROFINET
(Ethernet). An OPC server is used to bridge the programming software (PC WORX)
and Factory IO. The choice of a set with 2 systems results from a desire to
test the connection with 2 boards to see the configuration in the PC WORX
software.
